About The Position

Technical Product Manager (TPM) – ITSM ServiceNow General Purpose The Technical Product Manager (TPM) will serve as the primary strategic guide and platform expert for the ITSM ServiceNow platform within DaVita. As the Process Management team expands its services to support all of ITSM in ServiceNow—extending beyond just IT to anyone using the platform—the TPM will be instrumental in bridging the gap between business requirements and technical execution. While our Process Management team owns the experience and gathers requirements, and our ServiceNow Development team executes the actual coding, the TPM is critical in guiding us on what ServiceNow can do, and more importantly, advising on what we should do. This role is vital in helping DaVita avoid technical debt and over-customization by empowering us to make informed, sustainable platform decisions. Additionally, the TPM will guide us through an exciting roadmap, including turning on AI features (Now Assist), upgrading our conversational LLM-based chatbot, and integrating with other enterprise tools. Essential Duties and Responsibilities The following duties and responsibilities generally reflect the expectations of this position but are not intended to be all-inclusive.

Requirements

• 5+ years of proven, hands-on experience with the ServiceNow platform, specifically within ITSM.
• Deep understanding of ServiceNow capabilities, architecture, and best practices to effectively advise on "can do" vs. "should do."
• Strong understanding of integrations between ServiceNow and other enterprise applications (e.g., SharePoint, Teams, CCaaS platforms).
• Forward-looking mindset with an interest or experience in implementing AI and LLM-based conversational tools within ServiceNow.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills; ability to confidently push back on complex customizations to protect platform health.

Nice To Haves

• ServiceNow Certified System Administrator (CSA) (Highly Preferred)
• ServiceNow Certified Implementation Specialist – IT Service Management (CIS-ITSM) (Preferred)
• ITIL Certification (e.g., ITIL v4 Foundation or higher) strongly recommended as it relates to ITSM best practices.

Responsibilities

• Act as the strategic advisor for the ITSM ServiceNow platform, translating business requirements into out-of-the-box or low-customization solutions.
• Evaluate requests critically to prevent over-customization and technical debt; confidently guide customers toward sustainable, best-practice solutions.
• Review ServiceNow version release notes to proactively determine how new versions will impact our current landscape and present new, value-add features to the team.
• Work closely alongside our Process Manager to thoroughly learn and understand DaVita’s specific processes and culture.
• Represent the Process Management Team during the ServiceNow Development team's technical reviews to ensure alignment between the requested experience and the technical design.
• Manage the IDEA queue, prioritizing intake based on strategic value, platform health, and business impact.
• Create comprehensive testing plans to ensure high-quality releases.
• Drive the strategy for how our ITSM ServiceNow product integrates with other enterprise tools, specifically Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, and our CCaaS product (NICE CXone Copilot).
• Guide the team through the upcoming implementation of AI features within ServiceNow using Now Assist.
• Lead the strategic transition from our current transactional chatbot to ServiceNow's next-generation conversational LLM-based chatbot.
